Based on actual events about the harsh realities of teenagers living life in a group home (where over 100,000 American juveniles live each year). The story: Roy (Josh Keaton), a new kid and artist from the suburbs is tested by Daryl (Carl Gilliard), the group home leader and his military style rules, a forbidden romance with Laura (Chloe Taylor), his streetwise and reactionary roommate (Danny Arroyo), and his own troubled past as he tries to survive until 'graduation day'. In the end, only his art can save his dreams of love, hope and freedom.

This is not a Hollywood mainstream or MCU film, but one of a modest budget that depicts a compelling story and acted realistically by good young actors. Inspired by true events, it's main character, Roy (played by Josh Keaton), is simply trying to avoid juvenile hall as he adjust to life in militant group home where other troubled teens stay. During his stay, Roy is forced to conform to strict house rules, deal with his over the top roommate, Lucky (played by Danny Arroyo), and hide his love affair with fellow teen Laura (played by Chloe Taylor). In the end, the lessons learned are hard ones. Not all are fair or just, but this film tries to show that life can be what you make of it, and sometimes just believing you are more than your surroundings can carry you through the tough times. I enjoyed "Adolescent of Chymera" very much and recommend it.
